Abstract: This study examines whether the flipped classroom teaching method effectively improves the academic performance and learning skills of education students in Saudi universities, unlike traditional lecture-based pedagogies. Guided by constructivist learning theory, the research employs an autoethnographic methodology based on the experiences of the author as a student and educator in Saudi Arabia and Australia. This study examines how flipped classrooms integrate technology, student autonomy, responsibility for learning, engagement, and satisfaction. therefore, the flipped classroom is an educational approach that delivers theoretical content to students via videos or online learning materials to be studied at home. In classroom sessions, it focuses on practical activities, discussions, and problem solving, which enhances understanding and practical application of concepts, and increases student engagement. Results from this study indicated positive effects on the student's academic achievements and involving them in more interactive learning. This study suggests that adopting the flipped classroom method could result in relatively better academic preparation for modern educational challenges in Saudi higher education. A future empirical research that examines the effectiveness of the flipped classroom method on education students in Saudi universities is recommended. In order to make generalizations based on the findings, non-probabilistic sampling must be applied.
